Good Historical Data

Great beginning to this book. The End was a little less than to be desired. Mr. Jefferies is not a Mason, but he seems to have a good knowledge of the history of the craft. If your interested in some more memorable moments in the American birth of the Lodge, you'll enjoy this book. The ending is pretty much opinion and you can take it or leave it as you like.

If this book doesn't teach you something, your not reading hard enough.

This was a very compelling view of our nations founding under Masonic influences. It is very tangible with many refrences. It will draw you in and not let you put it down. It is a complete account of Freemasons in the Americas and even plays devils-advocate for the Masonic-haters. A must read.
